What I'm doing now
This is a Now page. It outlines a few things I’m focused on at the moment.

After leaving my job, I’ve thrown myself into two new tracks: consulting and building a business. It’s a bigger shift than any career move I’ve made before, and a few months in I’m genuinely loving this new life; the freedom, the focus, and the sense that I’m finally building something of my own.
As a consultant, I help organizations level up how they build software — sharper engineering practices, improved delivery — and adopt AI securely and efficiently. There’s plenty of hype and plenty of fear out there; I help cut through both and make these tools actually pay off.
The business I’ve joined is quietly getting ready for a serious stretch of growth and scaling. The pieces are lining up in a way that’s hard not to get excited about, and I suspect 2027 is the year it all really comes together.
My BJJ is in a great groove with a steady four to five sessions a week, and I can feel it. Techniques that used to be a scramble are getting smooth and controlled, and I’m rolling with more calm and intent than ever. It might be the most consistent I’ve ever trained.
I’m also back under the bar two to three times a week, and the strength is returning fast. There’s something deeply satisfying about watching the numbers climb again and feeling myself get physically stronger alongside the technical progress on the mats.
I’ve been diligent about reviewing the books I read this year, and there have been plenty of them. Writing a short review forces me to actually digest each book instead of just turning the last page and moving on.
And I’m having an absurd amount of fun working with AI and building out my own systems around it. It’s crazy how much these tools leverage my work. Things that used to take days now take an afternoon, and the ceiling keeps rising.
Currently reading
I usually read several books in parallel — one fiction, one non-fiction, one biography (as an audiobook), and one daily book — so I can switch by mood and reliably read at least one page before allowing myself to call it a day.
These are my current reads:
